Yes that’s possible. There are two apps. One app for using the hub, and the other for using direct connection through zigbee protocol. The benefit of using the direct connection approach is it builds upon the mesh of homey itself. This way you can combine the light bulbs of HUE, IKEA and other Zigbee devices in one mesh which should increase the coverage of the network (every bulb is a router). The downside (for me at least) was the reception. The direct connected light bulbs did not respond that well. Now I have finally executed on the antenna mod so maybe it has been resolved, but I’m using the hub for Hue quite happily. I’m not that happy with the IKEA hub app, so maybe i’m going to transfer them back to homey.
